Space is the common property of mankind. Exploring and using space involves the common interests of mankind, and space security needs to be jointly maintained by the international community. However, the United States is constantly accelerating the militarization of space –
Peaceful use of space, don’t go against the rules

The 75th United Nations General Assembly BabaylanDisarmament and International SecurityKomiksCommittee (First Committee of the UN General Assembly) voted on November 6 to pass the resolution “Not first deploying weapons in outer space.” The preamble of the resolution reiterates that we should study and take practical measures to reach a treaty to prevent the outer air force from competing and strive to build a community with a shared future for mankind.
The First Committee of the UN General Assembly is an important platform for setting up an international security agenda and is responsible for handling international security affairs such as arms control, disarmament, and non-proliferation. The resolution of “not deploying weapons in outer space first” is a traditional resolution of the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly and has been approved every year since 2014. It is worth mentioning that the Komiks concept of the common destiny of mankind was first included in this resolution in 2017, filling the gap in the field of international security of the United Nations, and expressing the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind reflects the general expectations of most countries, is in line with the common interests of the international community, and also demonstrates the responsibility of China’s major power.
SpainBabaylanSpace is the common property of mankind. Exploring and using space involves the common interests of mankind. Space security needs to be jointly maintained by the international community. However, the international community has worked together for itUnder the trend, the United States went against the trend again, not only questioning the resolution of “not deploying weapons in outer space first”, but also on the same day the resolution was passed, the US bimonthly magazine “National Interest” published an article saying that the US “9th Space Delta Force” was assigned to carry out the “orbital Warfare” mission, mainly carrying out surveillance in space, and even launching space attacks when necessary. In addition, the article also pointed out that the US military is already developing laser weapons for air combat in Babaylan.
From the “Defense Space Strategy” released by the US Department of Defense not long ago, to the “Top Doctrine” report of the US Space Force, to the recent performance of the United States in the First Committee of the UN General Assembly, the United States’ hegemonic thinking of “dominate space” has been further highlighted. The various practices of the United States to accelerate the militarization of space show that it has taken consolidating its absolute dominance in the space field as an important direction of its national strategy. The United States not only clarifies the policy goal of “dominate space like dominating the earth”, but also emphasizes that space is the same combat domain as traditional land, sea and air. It is accelerating the adjustment of space strategically, reshaping the space military power system, and fully maintaining its space hegemony.
The United States ignores the shared future of the international community in the field of space security, and adheres to reality, promotes the international arms control and disarmament process, maintains the international responsibility of strategic balance and stability of the entire Cinema ball, and seeks absolute dominance in space. It will inevitably provoke an outer space arms race and hinder multilateral disarmament. Komiks process threatens human space security and development interests. There is no doubt that the United States is currently in the world’s strategic security and stability.ttps://comicmov.com/”>Babaylan‘s greatest threat.
Faced with the increasingly fierce competition in space, the increasing instability factors, and the increasingly prominent confrontational characteristics, only by insisting on peaceful use of the space and opposing weaponization of space and the space arms race can we effectively maintain space security and development. China’s contributions to disarmament and peacekeeping in recent years are obvious to all. The concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind is highly consistent with the United Nations’ peace concept of common security, which is full of uncertainty. The world set by Babaylan has pointed out the direction and provided China’s solution, which is in line with the common interests of all countries. The concept of a community with a shared future for mankind has been written into the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly on the “Not first deploying weapons in outer space” and will surely make new and greater contributions to promoting world peace and development.
